I have been working for an equipment manufacturer for 18 years in various roles from individual contributor to Director. I’m currently in Sales, and someone within our “Emerging Technology” group says he wants to discuss some new designs with a couple of my customers that are in that space, but before he can talk to me about it, he needs me to sign this “NDA”.

The file name says “Internal NDA Sprint”, but the document heading is “Acknowledgement of Confidentiality”, it’s a 1 page document that states the code name of the internal development project, says everything related to it is potentially confidential, then has a list of 4 things I acknowledge (basically pulled from our Code of Conduct), then states any violation of this acknowledgement will result in disciplinary action up to and including termination.

I’ve never been asked to sign something like this from my company on a specific product/project basis. There was no NDA or CDA when starting employment, we just go through our Code of Conduct training on an annual basis which includes confidential and proprietary information.

I have no intention on violating this whatsoever, but I make a habit of being skeptical of new processes for something I’ve been through 100 times already. Is this something that’s legally enforceable, or if something were to occur, where I was in violation, would they be forced to point to our Code of Conduct for termination purposes anyway?

I am on day 6 of taking the starter dose (first GLP1). The results thus far have been great, maybe a little too good for comfort (down 9lbs off 265lb starting weight).

My problem has been the waves of nausea, the frequent heartburn, and the fatigue.

After Day 2, I started taking the pill early-mid afternoon because I was noticing by 4pm I was crashing hard, so the fatigue hasn’t been a huge issue lately.

My main concern is the short bursts of intense nausea, and the frequent heartburn. I’ve been doing everything I can to lessen the impacts, but since I’m taking the pill in the afternoon now, it seems like the heartburn is just keeping me awake half the night.

Also, I don’t normally dream (at least I never remember my dreams), but the last 3 nights, I’ve had really weird and vivid dreams.

I know others have had some of these same side effects, if so, did they last past the 1st week? I’m slightly worried they’ll dissipate after a couple weeks, then I’ll bump up a dose and go through it all over again.
